Good stuff, keith.

 

Good to get this information out here. BTW when I click the thumbnails, I get a window that displays the thumbnail again, not a larger image. Nathan? Any idea why?

 

The photos that were linked were the thumbnails, not the larger versions. I'll fix them.

 

Thanks for sharing that K.

 

And another thread to keep subscribed to....thanks!

 

So, any help changing one out then?

 

Awesome information! Thank you for sharing; it'll be very helpful to many MINIacs in the future [if not already].

 

Interesting. I'm going to buy a new pump for my R50. I heard the R53 pump fits but is higher volume. Is this true?

 

Thanks dude, where did you get your pump from?

 

My oil seals were like yours! I bought the 2 oil pump gears and a new spring and valve to be sure the oil pump is back to new. There was no wear in the housing.

 

forgot to mention I get with cold 5/30 racing oil idle/3500rpm 40psi/85psi and hot 20psi/75psi
